Match Discussion: Round 8 vs St Geo Illa @ WIN Stadium

[Tigerm]

Don’t know if this is a true photo? But if it is, Jimmy is firing up to get more speed

What does his comment even mean ? Was it your body double at the game.

Possibly a statue, let’s face it, most of the team move as fast as a statues.

He should have said that then. He should have stated well our statues turned up.

I went to the training session this arvo. The players looked relaxed, going through their drills and stuff with some good intensity. Team looks united and together.

That said, I think it was Madden and Brooks were putting up bombs for the backs, and Roberts dropped 5 straight. Rather than being annoyed, he's laughing it off and treating it lethargically.

I’m staying loyal to Jimmy.

Too much chaos, I need an anchor. He will come good.

Sounds like they are primed for another arse flogging.
Bunch of useless f**ks.

It's like they don't actually care if we win or lose. It seems they are just stoked that they have the privilege to get paid to play footy. It would then explain why they aren't buying in to what Madge is trying to build, and also why the players driven to win a premiership don't want to be here.

Give them all a lie detector test and ask them "do you want to win a premiership at the Wests Tigers?". Everyone will say yes, but I reckon half of them will fail. They really don't seem to give a shit

 

[benched tiger]

Hunt, Sims etc. will look like SOO certs after this game.

Cini to play. Roberts out.

 

[Tigerm]

Cini called in to squad to make his FG debut, hoping big things from him

 

[Fordy20]

He wasn't named in the initial 21 player squad.

Was it actually approved by the NRL?

If not they can only dock us 2 points

I wasn't overly thrilled about watching this game until I saw this news. Can't expect too much from a first appearance on the wing but if he is able to bring half the enthusiasm with him from the Magpies to the Tigers he just might lift the rest of the team to put in a decent effort.
I'm tipping him to be a regular first grader next year if not this year.

 

[Ned Kelly]

Just in-case you haven't seen him play.


Sure it's from last year but he has been doing the same stuff this year. He knows when to run, when to side step, when to use his power and when to pass. Huge future ahead of him.

 

[stryker]

Will reserve judgement Ned, but that highlights package isn’t awesome. Pretty stock standard.
In saying that, if he can defend, he is an improvement.

He can defend. He is safe under a high ball and the amount of meters he has been making post contact has been amazing. I know first grade is a big step up up but sadly for Jimmy the Jet I am confident he will be an improvement. At the very least he won't be any worse.

 

[stryker]

Sweet. Good luck to him. Heard his name thrown around for a while now.

 

[Pistol_Pete]

What’s happened to Jimmy the jun I mean Jet?? Didn’t step on a shard of glass did he? Useless, piece of shit, waste of money, lazy, past it f**ken myth. I reckon I’m a better player than that f**king clown and I haven’t played since the backyard 30 years ago and I’m in my 40s with 2 f**ked knees. Spastics like Roberts are fawned over and idolised by a good chunk of our mongoloid fans. Truth is the prick should be hounded out of the club he’s a f**king joke.

Don’t think he has to be named in the 21 as long as there is more than 24hrs notice.
